Snecisl To the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
BosToN, Nov. S.-The enormous
crowds in the streets and in the corri-
doris of the leading hotels tonight indi-
cate that the interest in the state con-
test is very much more intense than
usual. The usual election crowd Occu-
pies that narrow part of Washington
street called Newspaper row. At the
Republican headquarters Chairman
Burden claims that the Republicans
will have plurality of not less than A.
600 and may reach 1900. The net loss
for the Democratic ticket in Boston is
5000, while thu Republicans claim that
they have gained three or four senators
and dozen Ut more representatives.
The total returns so far received at the
Republican headquarters show Demo-
cratic net loss in the state of S,40O. AT
the Democratic headquarters they are
making no claims, except that the vote
will be found to be close when the re-
turns are all in.
The following senators are elected
First, Suffolk, Kimball, Ind. Rep: Sec
ond, Suffolk, SouthwOrth, Ind. Rep;
Third, Suffolk, Dwyer. Ind. Dem. and
Labor; Fourth. Suffolk, Sullivan, Dem.;

Suffolk, Collins, DEM: Seventh, Suf-
folk, Hathorne, Rep; Eighth, Suffolk,
Shea, DEM; Ninth, Suffolk, Boardman,
Rep.
THE ELECTION OF OLIVER AMES
as governor is at this hour Q1 p. m.),
generally conceded on all sides and the
returns favor the belief that the claims
of an increased plurality for their can,
didates by the Republicans are well
founded. Although the fight on the
gubernatOrial tickets has been an eX-
ceedingly warm one, there has been a
number of contests among the senate
rial and representative candidates which
have been almost unprecedented for
bitterness. These have provoked, be-
cause of this bitterness, even more in
terest and excitement than were Occa-
stoned by the contest for the governor
ship. Probably the bittereSt senatorial
fight was that in the Fourth Suffolk dis
tric. in which Sullivan, Dem., has de-
feated E. j. Jenkins, the present in
cumbent, who was indorSed by
both Independent Democrats and Re
publicans Hon. Patrick Dwyer, indie
pendent Democrat, defeats Hankens,
regular Democrat, i'll the Third district.
Collins, Democrat, is elected over Pack

Gratis TO the legislature, Republican
